            Bug ID: 165525
           Summary: Inconsistency in behaviour with the presence of a
                    double sign (operation, number), as with = - -1 and =
                    - -1^2
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 25.2.1.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: [email protected]

Description:
Hello

The problem is similar to this old bug report
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114929
I got there just by playing with -3^2.

There is an inconsistency in the management of the double sign (operation sign
and number sign).
= - -1 is interpreted by LibreOffice as = 0 - -1 and the result is correct and
is +1.
Writing instead = - -1^2 the result is still +1 and is wrong, if instead I
write = 0 - -1^2 the answer is correctly -1, It's as if when there is an
exponentiation the first sign is completely ignored.


It is not a serious problem but certainly an inconsistent behaviour.

Bye, Moreno

1.= - -1  OK
